If you're doing Weight Watchers, you're in luck!

I suppose it would also qualify under the Atkins diet.

I don't know why they call it placenta Helper....it does just fine on its own!

I went to college with a former Miss Placentia.
:D

That is beyond odd. Actually, I know several super crunchy moms that saved and ate some placenta. It stops bleeding after giving birth and is loaded with minerals that a new mom is lacking. Supposedly, it helps prevent post partum depression. So, while I might actually hurl up my own intestines if I tried to take a bite of placenta, I get why some strong stomached moms do it. But Tom doing it, is just ridiculous. Unless he's found a miracle of Scientology that allows him to give birth.

So, placenta is a super food?

Hey, combine placenta and breastmilk in a smoothie and you could probably fly!

OMG, I thought Leo was kidding about this one. But there are tons of 'Cruise will eat placenta' stories all over Google News. I haven't found any of the mainstream press outlets picking this story up, though. Ewwwww! If anything, Holmes should eat that...

Tom must not be getting enough attention right now. Poor sap.

Apparenly the story started with a story in the Daily Mirror and is based on an excerpted quote from a GQ story. According to this item, Cruise has recently been using the placenta-eating thing as a joke abou the weird things people have been saying about him.

So it could be a case of a joking statement being taken as serious.
